It is the weakest link - period.

This "pairing" (read: strongly forced WTF story) an interesting idea on paper, the dialogue is pretty good but the whole set-up and especially pacing is beyond horrid. Since this is the numero 1 story I find really tedious to watch B&B these days.

B&B really got botched by the strike. We entered 2008 with full force, then Kay Alden did disappoint me mostly because the show didn't feel like B&B but had watchable stories, now that Brad returned, the show feels like B&B again but has pointless and horrifyingly executed stories... Sigh!

Probably I'm ultra-pissed that nothing makes sense in L.A. anymore. At FC people are talking about Katie and her tragedy out of nowhere, in general there are zero bonding moments anywhere, yet people side with so. inexplicably, we haven't had a senseable business story in ages, Spectra Fashion wasn't seen since last November... Yet the Logans walk from family tragedy to the next and it really isn't worthwhile. :rolleyes:

Pacing, plotting - what happened to that? Is LML now creative consultant at B&B? <_<

The chemistry is there between Tom and Wagner. BUT - I think EVERYBODY liked Katie better with Thorne who is in such a desperate need for a storyline anyway, add the above mentioned joyful ingredients and you get a rather frustrated audience.

So, Sylph, you are (still) watching - right? Just asking because you and your Brad Bell avatar :P haven't voiced a opinion on the show in a while...

Okay ... um ... I'm sorry for bringing back up a week old thread, but I have to comment on a couple of things. First of all, that is one frightening picture of Nick. LOL! And to think that Katie saw that and actually thought she had died and gone to heaven. Honey, I don't think heaven is that cruel! LOL!

And OT, but I'm checking out MoTheGreat's avatar and remembering what a special pairing Daniel and Lily once were. Missing you Davetta Sherwood!

      Maybe it'll take even more than two years
    • Irna wasn't involved with ATWT at the time of Neil's death, was she? I'm imagining a situation where right after his latest doctor's appointment, he's killed.
    • The Cruise of Deception was the first thing that came to mind when I mentioned that Brady might take after that side of the family 
    • We all knew that TT is busy so if she's off screen for a bit except for phone calls and/or visits.. then it is what is. Ashley was nicely used as support... which the writers should have been doing since day 1 so that viewers could understand why exactly she's on the show LOL Chelsea/Madison.... seems too good to be true... we shall see. Shanice as a PT... if it means more airtime.. I'm good.
    • Yeah, he's a mobster with Vanessa while his wife cozies up to mobsters as the worst mayor in America. 
    • He's too busy in Maryland with a younger blonde woman.

    • The rumor Zimmer writes about sounds like something Paul Rauch would have told Zimmer about Jacqueline Courtney as a way to discredit Courtney as Rauch loved to do that sort of thing. Zimmer probably just retroactively fit it into her story. Zimmer does not have good sense of time in her memoir. Who knows?!!? Zimmer strikes me as someone who always has to be competing with women.  Zimmer and 1986: If I had no context and someone told me that someone in the 1986 scenes would win four Emmys, I would immediately pick Denniston. Granted, I've only watched about a week's worth, but my word, Zimmer just fades into the background even when she's the main player in the storyline. There's no life in her performances. It feels that Zimmer is unhappy and that she's letting it impact her acting. 
    • I'm dreading going into the ninth season; I've got to be mentally ready for it.

       Does not help these seasons are damn near thirty episodes. Twenty-two should've been their cut-off.
    • True. I did enjoy the episodes surrounding Greg's faux death, too. @Liberty City Agreed, it started pretty slow, but once Jill falls off the cliff, I was more invested for some reason. Yes, I genuinely enjoyed the episodes surrounding Greg's fake death. I agree, it began quite slowly, but once Jill fell off the cliff, I became much more invested for some reason. I guess bc more of the cast was working together.  
    • Shouldn't Laura talk to Kevin first before agreeing to her brother Martin moving in with them? Her house is like a hotel for people she never sees -- like Lucky, who she's unaware of his latest departure as a man who runs away from everything. Meanwhile, Lucky is busy giving away his cabin to Isaiah, who we've barely seen him with.
